"Liberal Christian" is the Ultimate Oxymoron

"Liberal Christian" is the Ultimate Oxymoron

First of all, I must be completely honest and admit that I tend to be a little impartial when it comes to this subject, but I am going to try to keep my mind open and not be narrow-minded. Some might say that keeping my mind open is the first step to liberalism and they might be correct; but rest assured, there is no danger of me slipping over to the “dark side” of the political spectrum. 

I am a conservative christian and very proud of it. In fact, to be completely honest, I do not believe there is a such thing as a liberal christian. I consider this two-word combination to be the ultimate oxymoron. For me, the implications of “liberal christian” far overshadows any other oxymoron such as “dark light” or “living dead” because of the eternal repercussions and possibility of losing one’s soul. 

I know this is bold statement, but anyone whom interprets the Bible anywhere close to what it says should easily agree that killing helpless babies and a lack of social-economic responsibility are two core liberal beliefs that go directly against the Bible’s teachings. How can a christian go to church one day and pray for healing, then the next day condone ramming a sharp instrument into the brain of a partially born baby? The same goes for going to church one day and saying “Amen!” when the preacher preaches the principles of responsibility, taking care of and loving your children and others, paying your bills and building up treasures in Heaven and not on earth; then the next day disregard and support politicians that continue to spend away our children’s and grandchildren’s future and refuse to pass a budget and do what is best (christian) for all Americans. Just think of how many other core liberal beliefs go against God’s Holy Word. Same-sex marriage is another big one that just pops out there. How many more can you think of?

Republican or Democrat?

When it comes to Liberals always remember: "Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions." Proverbs 18:2 NLT

A young teenage girl was about to finish her first year of college. She considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat but her father was a rather staunch Republican.

One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to taxes and welfare programs. He stopped her and asked her how she was doing in school.

She answered that she had a 40 GPA but it was really tough. She had to study all the time, never had time to go out and party. She didn't have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying.

He asked, "How is your friend Mary." She replied that Mary was barely getting by. She had a 2.0 GPA, never studied, but was very popular on campus, went to all the parties all the time. Why she often didn't show up for classes because she was hung over.

Dad then asked his daughter why she didn't go to the Dean's office and ask why she couldn't take 1.0 off her 4.0 and give it to her friend who only had a 2.0. That way they would both have a 3.0 GPA.

The daughter angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair, I worked really hard for mine and Mary has done nothing".

The father slowly smiled and said, "Welcome to the Republican Party".

Democrat or Republican? Let the Bible Decide!

Christian Democrat ... That's Impossible!

I do not know about you, but I am so tired of hearing people say they are Christians and vote Democrat. I believe it is impossible to be both because their beliefs are complete opposites of each other. I believe it is also wrong to always vote Republican and call yourself a Christian because many Republicans have beliefs that are contrary to Christian teachings as well. I believe a true Christian has to be Independent of both parties and vote for the lesser evil. It is virtually impossible to vote Democrat because one never finds a Democrat with less evil values than his or her Republican opponent.

If you know one, please cue me in so I can give him or her my full support!

Now, you are probably thinking ... "This guy is nuts!" and "How can he say such nonsense?"

Who care what I think? What really matters is what God thinks ... so ... let's take a look!

Remember, when you vote for a political candidate, you do not just vote for the person; essentially ... you vote for every ideal and belief that person holds. In short, what every impact that person has on society ... either good or bad ... is partly your responsibility.

St. Paul wrote to the church in Corinthians this, "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil." 2 Corinthians 5:10

This means that God hold you personally responsible for your actions ... Good and Bad.

Let us take a look at what God thinks about the mainstream political platform that most Democrats support and vote for in the Congress and Senate. Which also translates, what you support when you support the Democrats.

What God says about "Gay Marriage and Homosexuality."
Most have heard the saying, "God made Eve and not Steve!" Well, this is true. Not because I say so, but because God believed a woman was the perfect companion for man, not another man.

"Then the Lord God said, 'It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him' ... Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man." Genesis 2 18, 22 NLT

"Haven't you read the Scriptures?"Jesus replied."God made them male and female... This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together."Matthew 19:4-6NLT

"That is why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex ans instead indulged in sex with each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved." Romans 1:26-27 NLT

Their are many others on this subject, but why be redundant ... let's go to the next Democratic platform.

Most Abortions are done for convenience.
Approximately 93% of abortions are done out of convenience. It is very important to understand that the woman's heath is an issue only 3% of the time and rape or incest are an issue about 1% of the time. Democrats would have you think that women's health is the primary issue at stake when supporting "Pro-choice." This is not the case.
The truth is a large percentage of woman regret having an abortion later because she realizes that she did it for her own selfish reasons.

Abortion is an act of Murder.
Did your know that the term "with child" is in the Bible twenty-six times and the reference to "with fetus" does not exist.

Democrats argue that abortion is not murder because the baby is a "fetus" and does not become a human being until after birth. However, even scientist believe that life begins at the time of conception. If you do not believe me, go ahead and research the numerous scientist that attest to this fact.

What does the God say?
He hates those who shed innocent blood! Deuteronomy 27:25
"Cursed is anyone who accepts payment to kill an innocent person. And all the people will reply, Amen." Deuteronomy 27:25 NLT
"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:5 NLT
"You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and kit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born." Psalm 139 13-16 NLT

Like before, there is many more, but why be redundant. The message is clear.

As I said before, prove to me that it is possible to be both Christian and Democrat!

Difference Between Repulicans and Democrats

A Republican and a Democrat were walking down the street when they came to a homeless person. The Republican gave the homeless person his business card and told him to come to his business for a job. He then took twenty dollars out of his pocket and gave it to the homeless person.

The Democrat was very impressed, and when they came to another homeless person, he decided to help. He walked over to the homeless person and gave him directions to the welfare office. He then reached into the Republican's pocket and gave the homeless person fifty dollars.

Now you understand the difference between Republicans and Democrats

"Even while we were with you, we gave you this command; 'Those unwilling to work will not get to eat." 2 Thessalonians 3:10 NLT
